Smokey Robinson & the Miracles "Tears of a Clown" An Introduction to the Motown Elite 9000 Series
Worse things to end on a classic after a decidedly non-classic list, even in a semipopular way. Still, both Giant Sand and Calexico, a favorite early Wilco, a Maximo Park I want to think is informed by Walter Benjamin, and if it is in my ears, that's enough.
